Mrs. Paulina Andruszkiewicz-Gliska, a GPTE graduate of UW and a great English language instructor, spoke at a webinar on Classroom Management two weeks ago on our students' Practice class. She gave us a discussion about how we should manage the classroom and provided us very significant ideas as well as sharing her experience with us. The webinar's topic was both interesting and useful.

Firstly, she gave us the definition of classroom management and asked us to present several ideas about it. She presented many examples to make the presentation more understandable. Then, she presented some ideas about young learners and their characteristics, how to keep discipline in classroom. She discussed as much information as it suited to the time, it was noticeable that she was a little bit excited, she tried to speak faster to give us more information on the topic.

She also provided a variety of valuable resources for use in the classroom, beginning with greetings in the classroom and finishing with goodbye rhymes. Following the webinar, she emailed us a handout with important information and tools that I had no idea existed! For example, a wheel of names, an online seating arrangement, a volume meter in the classroom, and so on are all fantastic resources to utilize in an ELT classroom for young learners.

The webinar's material was fantastic for me, and it provided me with a plethora of fresh ideas to implement in my future classroom. The presenter was so engrossed in her work that I forgot about the difficulty of becoming a teacher for a time; she spoke clearly and enthusiastically. I wish it was an offline webinar so we could see her in person. However, during the next webinar, I hope we will have more time so she will not be rushed to talk.

To summarize, the webinar was extremely useful and the presenter was very lovely.

Thanks our teachers for organizing webinars <3
